Unknown feelings

I can't describe this feeling 

It's one I've never known

But I know that it feels bad

And I can feel it in my bones

 

It's a distinct emptiness 

But not a hole or void

This feeling just is

Now it's making me annoyed 

 

Confusion is familiar 

Same as joy and grief

But this lacks all I understand 

I feel like a falling leaf

 

The missing piece 

I now see was a rope

But my hands are unbound 

I feel some future hope

 

I feel free.

    Retract and hide

    I've recently found myself back in my shell

    Pretending to be someone I'm not

    And I think I know why.

     

    I've pulled back from people 

    Only interacting with animals and strangers online

    Radio silence

    I'm opening my phone

    To nothing 

    No messages, no emails, no missed calls,

    All I'm getting is radio silence 

     

    The sinking feeling in my heart returned

    The one where you know something is wrong

    It's dark out now.

    Stinging my eyes

    The tears come

    Pouring down

    Relentlessly.

    Still breathing 

    Still warm

    Yet dead 

    To me

    And me alone.

    Grief floods me

    Again 

    I'm drowning
